SEO and Long Tail Marketing

If you're a small business and you're trying to market your website, you may find it difficult to compete with the larger companies.

Impact of Social Media on SEO

Mike Seidle from Pro Blog Service wrote..."Most of our clients at Professional Blog Service come in thinking SEO. Somewhere they hear that blogging works for getting better ranks on Google. Then a funny thing happens: After about one-three weeks the light goes on and they realize that social media can be much bigger than SEO for their business. After that the game changes to a full on social media blitz - and the SEO benefits - they don’t… Continue

A Day In The Life Of A Search Engine Optimizer Some business owners begin Internet marketing on their own. They read the small business guides and learn all they can about search engine optimization.

2008 Christmas Season

The 2008 Christmas season will definitely be a reflection of the economy at the time. And by all accounts, the economy during Christmas 2008 will not be good. As more and more economists tell us that we haven't yet hit rock bottom, the worst is yet to come, etc. I think it's only fair to conclude that we will be in for a rocky ride not only for the end of 2008 but most if not all of 2009. Let's hope it ends in 2009! But, time will tell.

But, back to 2008 Christmas season - how can you… Continue

"I typed my name in and I'm nowhere on Google?"

Usually, a day or two after I begin marketing a new website, I get this question in an email or phone call. Even though on the proposal I sent out to the client and on the contract I have the client sign it clearly states that it takes 3-8 months to get listed and ranked in Google's engine. But, the questions still come. So, to answer this question, here's a quick little summary of how Google lists sites.

1) Contrary to what… Continue

Does Your Website Have Goals?

Does your website have goals? I mean REALLY!

I bet you think it does. Some of you may be right. But, just to make sure, go and check.

The website goals I'm talking about are measurable goals. This means that when you look through your website stats you can measure if the goals are being met or not. After all, what's the point of reviewing statistics on the website if you don't even know if the campaign is working? But believe me, so many website owners just get a report of… Continue

How To Keep Up With All The News!

One of my favourite little tools to use to keep up with "news" is Google Alerts.

If you haven't used it yet, I don't know what you are waiting for. It's one of the best ways to stay ahead and on top of anything that you are interested in.

I find the best way to use it is to type in my subject in quotes. That way Google only alerts me when any news comes up just for that particular phrase. Otherwise, I would get ale… Continue

Writing For Websites

As an SEO webmaster, I am continuously “scolded” by copywriters. I don’t mean Internet copywriters, I mean copywriters, those who write for print. “Writing for websites”, I tell them, “is not the same as writing for print.”

What’s their usual response?

I’m not writing for SEO, I’m writing for the readers! I’m not manipulating my words just to meet some SEO rules.

That’s the usual response I get, something like that. And I hav

Small Businesses - Tough Economy and SEO

Of course, with all the news about the “economic meltdown” it’s hard to NOT think about how SEO is being impacted by this economy.

Hip Hop Drum Samples

Recently, the hat has tipped in favour of the dedicated

drum samples hardware route, with new, much less costly devices starting to become well-liked among vets and amateurproducers alike. The Akai MPD, for example, is pretty much the same as the MPC series of drum sequencers, except that

it lacks any sequencing and arranging capability, leaving

that processing up to the actual host ( the

PC audio / midi program, for example FL Studio (
